iQOO is likely to announce the iQOO Neo5s and iQOO Neo5 SE this month in China. The company is expected to unleash the iQOO 9 series of flagship devices in January 2022. Well ahead of the launch, Chinese tipster Panda is Bald has shared the key details of the iQOO 9.
iQOO had recently confirmed that it will be launching Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 powered flagship phone. The new leak claims that the upcoming iQOO 9 lineup will be driven by the new chip. It can be said based on predecessor models that the iQOO 9 series will include two handsets such as iQOO 9 and iQOO 9 Pro.
According to the tipster, the standard iQOO 9 will be gracing a second-generation independent display chip, which will assist in offering an improved visual experience. The device will be equipped with dual speakers and dual x-axis linear motors. For gamers, the device will offer dual pressure-sensitive shoulder buttons.
The iQOO 9 is also expected to carry support for a 120Hz refresh rate. In all likelihood, the device will be sporting an AMOLED panel with an in-screen fingerprint scanner. It will carry support for 120W fast charging. The iQOO 9 series will also come with an enhanced heat dissipation system and micro-gimbal PTZ. To recollect, the micro-gimbal feature was only available on the iQOO 8 Pro, and not on the vanilla iQOO 8. It is unclear whether the iQOO 9 Pro as well as its vanilla version will offer micro-gimbal PTZ camera.
While iQOO is expected to launch the iQOO 9 duo in China in January, there are speculations that the iQOO 9 series will be heading to India by February.
